Abstract
Excitation energy transfer (EET) processes in CdSe/CdZnS quantum dot (QD) clusters have been investigated in this study by measuring their time-resolved and spectrally resolved fluorescence intensities. The contributions of radiative and non-radiative exciton recombination through EET are evaluated, where the latter is expected to occur in a large class of QD ensembles because of the presence of nonluminescent QDs. It appears that the fluorescence decay in larger QDs serving as acceptor does not show an initial rise, in addition the lifetime of the acceptor QD is independent of the excitation wavelength, suggesting that an EET is followed mostly by non-radiative recombination.
